Mini steel plants in bad shape due to faulty govt policy

Bhagirath Verma from Chhattisgarh Mukti Morcha says small iron mills in the state are in very bad situation because the state is exporting iron ore in very cheap rate and giving the same ore to Indian companies in 6 or 7 times higher rate. For this policy the laburers in these factories are in hand to mouth situation. He says government must change this policy otherwise the laborers will be forced to come on the road to protest
